This is an example of
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching">impedance matching</a>.
Two <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_line">transmission
lines</a> with different
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_impedance"
>characteristic impedances</a> are matched with a shunt stub, a
short section of transmission line.  This
eliminates standing waves in the first line.  On the bottom you see the same
two lines without impedance matching.  The power delivered to the load is graphed
for both cases on the bottom.  With impedance matching, more power is delivered to
the load.
